1 answer:

5 0

$-\dfrac{1}{2}(-4+2x)=-6-4x\ \ \ \ \ |multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ (-2)\\\\-4+2x=12+8x\ \ \ \ |add\ 4\ to\ both\ sides\\\\2x=16+8x\ \ \ \ \ |subtract\ 8x\ from\ both\ sides\\\\-6x=16\ \ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ (-6)\\\\x=-\dfrac{16}{6}\\\\x=-\dfrac{8}{3}\\\\\boxed{x=-2\frac{2}{3}}$

Consider 7×10^3. Write a pattern to find the value of the expression

kkurt [141]

Answer:

7*10*10*10 = 7000

7*10 = 70

70*10 = 700

700*10 = 7000

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is:

7*10^3

Here 10^3 means that 10 will be multiplied 3 times:

7*10*10*10 = 7000

How did we get 7000?

7*10*10*10 = 7000

7*10 = 70

70*10 = 700

700*10 = 7000

We can also say that there are 7 1000s in 7000....

Solve the equation<br> 0.2(d-6)=0.3d+5-3+0.1d for d

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

d= -16

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question you'll have to first simplify the equation to

0.2d+-1.2=0.3d+5-3+0.1d

then combining like terms you get

0.2d-1.2=(0.3d+0.1d)+(5+-3)

0.2d-1.2=0.4d+2

then subtract 0.4d from both sides leaving you with

-0.2d-1.2=2

then add 1.2 to both sides

-0.2d=3.2

after you divide both sides by -0.2

leaving you with the answer

D= -16
